Apple is still hiring for FY-23

If a job is posted on workday for like 2 days and then disappears what does that mean

Intel is already joining the GPU market, which is pretty cool

guys when recruiter says that they would have final decision tomorrow and look out for email means is it gonna be a reject?

Ya 65 hr

#

Ya I heard about the check bouncing scam

tacit grove
#

So is this good or bad?

#

I'm confused

delicate lantern
#

Bad

tacit grove
#

So that means hiring is still going to be on freeze???

delicate lantern
#

Well it’s steady for now

#

And most of the layoffs said it was because they overhired in Clovis

#

Covid**

tacit grove
#

So the rate is going to remain as is...what are the next steps for the tech companies then?

#

That means the coming months nothing is going to improve? Or will hiring pick back up?

timber rock
#

I wld be surprised if they emailed u first to tell you about results tomorrow just to reject. But who knows

#

Companies be weird sometimes

tacit grove
#

Right. I think it'll pick up within the next 2 months but companies will be more vigilant with who they hire and hc

#

Did the Fed say they plan on increasing rates later this year??? That's what I've read

#

I only have one more week at the buffet. After that, I start my new IT job

#

$36k tc 😭

swift falcon
#

is it wfh?

rain patio
#

Nope, it's on site. And I have to be on call late at night on certain days lol

swift falcon
#

what is it, support?

rain patio
#

Maybe the $36k tc is a lowball estimate. I'm supposed to get paid $18/hr, and I estimated 40 hours of work per week, 50 weeks a year. Might be working more than that lol. I need more money, so that's fine with me!

#

Yeah, IT support lol

swift falcon
#

jesus

#

well ig I started at 45k a year

#

but that was like 5 years ago

#

ask for raise in 6 months

#

I make 64k now

rain patio
#

They did tell me that they want me to use my programming knowledge to help with things and that they also plan to hire more IT support people. Maybe I can convince them to make a SWE role for me after I get more experience? It's a tiny company with under 20 employees, so I bet there's a lot of room for growth if I work hard

fallen fox
#

do they make software they can sell?

rain patio
#

They make security cameras for law enforcement, but they're trying to expand their services to home defense as well

#

I could help with the camers software maybe

fallen fox
#

because it programming is mostly just making automation scripts and shit like that on powershell

I hope they don't use some weird proprietary OS for their cameras

yeah need a ft role or another internship for spring 2023

swift falcon
fallen fox
#

nope no h1b

#

maybe ill find a ft h1b role before march of next year copium

grave hawk
#

Guys, I have a doubt. Since the market is bad now, Can I opt for a company which doesn't sponsor H1b (in the application, say I dont want future sponsor) and work there for a year and switch to another company which sponsors a h1b?

rain patio
grave hawk
#

I mean is that allowed ?

fallen fox
#

sure im doing that rn

#

not swe but it

#

hopefully i'll get picked in the h1b lottery, if not, masters in canada i guess copium

wind drum
#

just marry an american while on opt easy

#

maybe easier than getting an h1b sponsored job at this point

grave hawk
#

Will that be lying? Because for the first year I don't want a H1b sponsorship

#

Or for 3 years too

#

Just want to work for 3 years no h1b

#

Ohhhh like that

#

Got it now

#

Hmm now I don't know how a guy got an intern at NBA when they clearly don't sponsor

fallen fox

i guess canada after 3 years on stem opt copium

#

u cant intern if ur not a student

ur literally better off spamming job apps

wut

#

its the same thing

#

wat u mean push

#

u can't start in spring

#

only advice i have is to practice your interviewing skills and when you're interviewing make sure that the interviewer is vibing w/ you and keeping up w/ your train of thought

autumn iris
#

wat school is it at

plush schooner
#

last cycle i got to a lot of final interviews and was good at LC but was never selected

#

cuz i sucked at the actual intervewing part

i have a good idea of GRA availability at top end schools

also its department based

sure, but i would also ask others since i am not super insane at getting offers

Guys do u think it’s bad to get upset about making 70k cause I found out that’s how much my intern pays for new grad and uhhh I think I can do better

#

I want to fish around first. I think I’ll be happy with it only if I go on a full effort job search for the next year and can’t get anything better .

south sable
#

honestly, you probably could

brave forge

It’s a good job though. Nice people, good tech and freedom to work full stack & mobile directly committing to production, mostly WFH with one day in office a week, and ya super LCOL area since it’s Kansas City

I’m planning on asking my manager tomorrow on our one on one if they can extend my internship through fall

Did you guess wrong or did they just reduce the salary?

Oh yeah congrats

#

70k in lcol is insanely good

brave forge
#

Ya that's the plan. I just grind non-stop so i wanna get something that matches my peak potential. IDK if my peak is 70k, (probably closer to 80k after a bonus & 4% stock). I have alll summer and up till december to possibly work part time intern and grind interviews non-stop so i might as well just do it for fun and see how 2024 goes. If i win i get a higher paying job, if I don't i just keep this and try again in a year

#

like i am always working it's why i speed ran uni in 2 years and already made a whole microservice for them before my first 2 weeks is even up . Apply that to leetcode & projects for my resume and i might have a real shot at some good interviews.

The techie memeing is kinda funny though

even if what he said was deplorable

I went to New York, when I saw Techie jaywalking across the street. An officer confronted him and after a long chat he took the officer's pad, wrote in it, and walked away. I talked to the officer and he told me through tears that Techie gave him a ticket for a low TC.

I had this recruiter reach out to me on linkedin about a job and gave me a coding assignment to do. the assignment was hard and i douldn't finish it in the one hour time limit. i got very close to finishing it but didnt completely finish it. the recruiter then offered me another chance at it lol, same problem and same one hour limit. ofc i finished the task then

but now it has been over a month, and the recruiter has been ghosting me. what do i do?

#

i've never had a recruiter be like "hey i see you were very close to finishing this task, can you get it done?"

rain patio
#

It's possible that you were the closest to finishing out of all the applicants, so the recruiter took pity on you and let you retry. Then, someone finished the task on time, so the recruiter went with that person instead?

#

There's always someone better out there, unfortunately, and recruiters will take the best they can get.

#

The nice thing is that once all those turbo tryhards get their jobs, you'll be the best option out of the remaining people looking for jobs. Then you can finally get a job! I'm in the same boat. Just have to wait until it's my time to shine

I do fractional CTO work, and, develop my own internal tools for my business and some hobbyist things; I did my undergrad in CS, and, my M.Sc. in HCI... 2023 is when I finish my MBA (August). I'm not hiring at the moment, but, like helping others or getting insights into how people I may later supervise or mentor or whatever is potentially useful. There are people here who are working in industry, etc. not everybody's a new grad (even though this server definitely has a tilt that way)

oh yea thats cool, I appreciate you for doing this

i hope to do something like you do in the future so I got big respect

chrome nimbus
#

no problem, I realize what I do is a bit more rare; most people live in one world or the other (e.g. business or technology), relatively fewer are the bridge. I had some interesting chats with people at the AWS Summit in Toronto earlier this week about that sort of thing (not pure developers, project managers, training/developers, entrepreneurs, startup CTO people, etc.)

# cosmic moat thanks for your advice!

for me having unique projects definitely helped a lot, went from 100 apps to no interviews last year to 70 apps 3 interviews and all i changed was the projects on my resume

though coming up with a unique one is hard sometimes, what i did as a starting point was think of my hobbies/interest

But I have to learn an entire language, read an entire textbook on the material just to get a reasonable idea of how to do it, it's distributed systems and its something I've been wanting to do for a while

chrome nimbus
# rain patio i see. Im curious how you got started on this?

it's a long story, involving burnout post-M.Sc., living in multiple countries, working at startups on the verge of failure, learning a lot in small companies, teaching at a university and having freedom+time to think deeply about what I really wanted, realizing job searching from abroad doesn't work well, and, figuring out that buying a company seemed better, then, after that worked, deciding diversifying would be helpful, finally finding others doing similar things, leveling up skills, and, really finding my tribe. Not a particularly linear path. Definitely lots of things that didn't work out on the way but from which I learned a lot.

I've been in that situation many times now. I think it's easier doing that when in management than when as an employee because you've got direct control and influence about how to extend the runway, etc. Still not guaranteed to be successful, though, of course. As an employee, it's difficult, it ends up being a topic of discussion almost weekly at lunch times, etc. I had a ton of other things going on then though like the impending birth of my first daughter (and then the first few months of her life) and sticking with a company I knew would be flexible was super important vs. jumping ship and potentially having to work longer hours or give up flexibility and irreplacable time.

#

I did also have multiple income streams, though not a fantastic one, if the company failed I wouldn't be going to 0 income, and, maternity benefits were a thing my wife was getting, etc.

Yeah, things change when it's not going from something to nothing, your risk becomes "Well, this wouldn't be great, but, I can make it" rather than like "Must find another job now or I'll starve". The bigger risk kind of becomes doing sub-par or slowly declining or opportunity cost or whatever rather than complete destitution

or get super lucky and end up at a startup that succeeds big time?
